5.00Our pilot Pete, and deckhand Danny provided a fun and informative sunset boat cruise of the Portland harbor. The highlight was positioning the boat perfectly and slowly spinning it a bit for amazing sunset photo with the beautiful Portland Head Light lighthouse. Danny provided informative information about the sights we saw, while Pete navigated us around as the sun set. The boat has a few open air ports and windows in addition to the clear closed windows around the passenger area, so you get a nice breeze without being totally exposed to the elements. Highly recommend this tour!
Perfect Sunset

5.00The Portland beer club is a fantastic meet up spot where we met Christopher- he is such a gem that we decided to go back after the boat ride for a round of beer and cider. Denny and the captain were super warm and knowledgeable about the history. Highly reccomend this company and the tour!

4.00The Captain was very friendly and took us on a smooth and scenic ride. The tour guide wasn't quite as friendly, but was very knowledgeable. It was difficult to hear him at times. He would benefit from a mic. The lighthouses were wonderful and the history was fascinating. They gave a small pour of beer on site while you wait and a can onboard. They had beer, wine, seltzers and soda on board. It was was well worth the price and I would definitely recommend them.

5.00Fabulous evening on the water! Seeing the lighthouses from the bay and, then, watching them as the sunlight faded - spectacular. Our Captain took us on a wonderful route and our guide provided SO much information! The addition of a cold beverage to sip on was just the cherry on top!
